I have a 4' T5 6 bulb you can borrow. I am in 07733.

Look at the one in the front. It's like this: Tank -> bulkhead -> flex pvc -> slip/slip adapter -> hard pvc. The hard pvc part is what's under water. no need to glue to the adapter. the slip/slip adapter is the part above the tank. There is an extra adapter in the picture because i...

That sump looks incredible. One day I will get one ... Now here's how I plumbed the drain. I use a slip/slip join and flex pvc for this. This allows me to easily pull out the return to remove the filter socks.

It's too far for me I hope you find someone local. If you can't then get a used tank or a piece of glass to practice. It's a lot easier than you think, especially with the guide. Just drill one hole you'll know. Be patient let the drill bit do the work. Push very slightly. Have a cup of water...

Bought a rainbow monti and rainbow acan. I guess I am in the rainbow phase. Great selections and prices. The rainbow acan didn't look like a rainbow but I took marks word for it. In my tank it colored up in a couple of hours all kind of color came out. Very happy with the purchase.

Bump. Taking offers. Want this gone.

You might be better off mount it verticle?

Happy Thanksgiving! Are you ready for the Eagles/Cowgirls showdown!?

Is the ALK checker worth the $?

Mine have ribbed shell. So they're the dumb kind :) Do Nerites do anything Astrea don't do? I have been losing Nerites every once a while, maybe due to old age but I rarely see a dead astrea so it's more durable.

Yes I believe these are Nerites.

On floor that is. Have been finding almost one every day. One is under the dining room table 8 feet from the tank. Still alive! I don't use a tank cover for the moment since I have no jumpers. Has this happened to you?

Panic，which I experience a lot. Sometimes the best thing to do is to leave the tank alone.

No. Once it's in the "on" position the outlet cannot be controlled. But you can get an alert then manually set it back to auto.

Yep. Probably what happened.

Getting a probe for Christmas :)

This is the program: If Outlet Alk = ON Then ON Defer 002:00 Then ON This will set off the alarm when the Alk outlet is on for more than 2 mins for whatever reason.

That's probably what happened. Although still that's a lot of ALK. Just measured Calc is 350. This is low it should be around 420ppm with the IO salt. Mg is 1250ppm which is also lower than what I think it should be. I drip to the baffle there is a thin layer of precipitate which I removed...

I know I am a moron and I proved it again. I was testing my ALK doser and got distracted (this happens more often now) so I left it in the ON position. The next morning I noticed my ALK container was empty. You know the sinking feeling, right? There was at least 500ml of ALK in the bottle...

Always shoot for 35ppt. I have heard good things about coralife as well when I was in the salt research phase. I was thinking about adding some coralife to IO just in case but never did it.
